Arriving at the religious court, Via and Riani immediately got out of the car and walked towards Nanda who was already waiting at that place.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Mr. Nanda," said Via and Riani simultaneously.
"Wa'alaikum salam. How about we just call a name, I feel like a stranger."
Via and Riani exchanged lyrics hearing Nanda's words. "If we were to call you Mas, you would be more mature than us."
Nanda nodded his head. "All right, I'll call you by name. How about Via and Riani? That right?"
Via and Riani chuckled amusedly, they did not expect that Nanda would turn out like that. Though the men are still very stiff like a neighbor's clothesline wire.
"Yes, Mas. You're so smart" Riani said, winking one eye.
Nanda and Via smiled at what Riani was doing, while the woman also smiled brightly.
Actually Nanda did not change because he was originally a humble and open person. It's just that in terms of work he must limit himself, and see first how the nature and character of his client. After that, he can only behave appropriately so that later does not cause problems.
From a distance Mahen looked at Via with clenched hands, his chest rumbling to see the laughter of the woman's lips.
"Why are you quiet, Mahen? Come on, we gotta get inside." Clara pulled Mahen's hand firmly, of course she was already impatient with all this happening.
Mahen looked at Clara sharply. "I have forbidden you to come here!" He did not like the existence of this woman.
"I just want to be with you, Mahen. What's wrong with that?" clara said, "I don't want you to be alone, Mahen. Whatever happens, I'll always be with you, and our son, too,"
Mahen breathed a heavy sigh. "All right, it's up to you." He turned around and immediately walked into the courtroom.
Mama Camelia and Papa Adrian who turned out to be in that place just look from inside the car. To be honest they felt sad, but could not do anything.
"Wouldn't their households be saved anymore?"
Papa Adrian smiled faintly. "Why? Isn't it how you and mom didn't like Via?" His eyes glanced at the wife who was also staring intently.
"I don't dislike it. It's just that I can't get close, but I just wanted to fix it." There is a sense of regret in the heart of Camelia's mother at this time, because since a long time ago she was not close to her daughter-in-law. "But, talk about mom. He has no idea about this, will there be no problems?" He looked at the husband with worry.
"I told my mother that maybe the day after tomorrow she will come back" said Papa Adrian. He had already contacted his mother who was currently traveling around Europe.
"Then, what did you say?" ask mama Camelia later.
"What else? Of course he was happy and also angry. She's happy that Mahen is parting ways with Via, but she's also angry that Mahen is impregnating another woman."
Mama Camelia sighs in frustration. He knew that his mother-in-law would be angry, since the old woman did not like Via. Of course, with the reason that they are not equal, also do not have a career level to be proud of.
"Don't think about all that, let Mahen take care of it. He who has made a problem, then he himself has to solve it" said Papa Adrian. He then started the engine of his car and drove away from the place.
The courtroom was already filled with plaintiffs and defendants, there were also several audiences who wanted to watch the trial today.
The atmosphere that was originally crowded suddenly became silent when the MC said that the judge and his staff would soon enter the courtroom.
"Asslamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu, good morning by noon I say to everyone present at the conference this time." The MC of the live event gave a word of greeting to everyone, not forgetting the respect for the judge and his other ranks.
Without stalling any more time, the divorce trial was immediately opened with the hammer knock that the judge did. It is expected that the plaintiff and the defendant, along with their respective lawyers to take the place that has been provided.
Now the judge faces the plaintiff and defendant, namely Silvia Maharani and also Mahendra Arkana.
The judge must ask a variety of questions to both of them, starting from the plaintiff's side first.
"At noon today, the trial is officially open. It is expected to be conducive during the trial, especially for the plaintiff and defendant."
Duk, duk, duk. The sound of a hammer knocking echoed in that place along with the arrival of a man who instantly took his place in the corner of the room.
"To the plaintiff, do you really want a divorce?" ask the judge on Via.
Via brushed his hands together, his tears will fall now. "True, Mr. Judge."
"Are you sure of the decision?"
Nanda rubbed Via's shoulders making the woman flinch, she who had been looking down at the man since.
"Bless your head, let out all the pain you feel. This is your time to be free, and do not be weak just because the feeling of love is still left."
Via nodded his head while wiping the tears that had managed to drip from his two eyes, he then turned his gaze towards the judge.
"I'm absolutely sure, Mr. Judge."
The judge nodded. "Are you not intending to refer back to your husband?"
"No, Mr. Judge,"
"alright. To the defendant, do you agree with the decision of the plaintiff?"
Mahen was silent when he got a question from the judge. His tongue felt cloudy to move, even his chest was rumbling violently.
"Suspect, did you hear me?" The judge again called Mahen because the man did not answer his question.
"I, I disagree, Mr. Judge."
Everyone was shocked by what Mahen said, especially Via and Clara.
